Sword of Dawn

The high-frequency oscillating molecular blade cut through the thorns in front of it, and the hard crystal fell from the pillar with a clatter. Cassandra, who was in the form of a sea monster, finally stopped her ten tentacles. He retracted part of the cutting knife into his body, used the vacated tentacles to cling to the raised structure on the surface of the pillar, and put his upper body in front of the pillar to observe carefully.

Under the dim light, those complicated but exquisite, eccentric but ingenious patterns are finally exposed unobstructed, looking... as if with some kind of ancient and mysterious beauty.

"...This is incredible..." Cassandra couldn't help muttering softly, "I've never seen such a thing—there has never been a similar style recorded in the long history of the siren. Sea-monsters are already well-informed."

"You don't even know the sirens..." Gawain's voice sounded from the darkness around the hall, he has been paying attention to the work progress of the sirens, and also the patterns exposed on the pillars, "But no matter what How to say, this is definitely not the sailor style."

"Yes, it's not the style of the voyager, the difference is too obvious..." Cassandra muttered softly as if talking to herself, her eyes scanned the column carefully from bottom to top, observing its peculiarity Style: It is made of some kind of alloy. Its gray-black shell is hard and delicate, with complex raised structures, and many indicator lights embedded in the gaps flicker slightly, which makes it look very "advanced". However, in addition to these advanced features, its surface is also covered with mysterious and complex lines with unknown meanings. Those lines seem to be formed by countless deformed and distorted runes connected end to end, and the starting point of any line cannot be seen at all. And the end, it brings a sense of contradiction like a primitive religious totem.

"The thing must have been made by the voyager. This is an advanced data interaction device. There is an extension structure at the bottom connected to other data terminals, but at the same time, it is covered with mysterious 'runes'... ..." Cassandra muttered, "I can't see what these runes do, but no matter how you think about it, they shouldn't be pure decorations..."

Gao Wen's voice came from the darkness: "Can you sense the flow of magic power in these runes or the 'interaction' between the surrounding environment and the runes?"

"I can't sense it," Cassandra shook her head. "Of course, it's also possible that the mechanism of the rune's effect is too complicated and obscure, which exceeds our perception level of magic power—you know, the sea monster perceives magic power. Not very good at it.”

"...Then call everyone else in," Gawain said after a moment of silence, "let's study this thing together. In addition, you continue to remove the remaining thorn structures around the pillars and on the ceiling, Let's see if there are any more clues."

Although Cassandra has removed a large amount of accretion on the main body of the column, there are still many remaining thorn structures attached to the floor and ceiling around the column. It seems that it will take some time to clean up these things, and While the Krakens continued to be busy, Nicholas, Azarena and others who stayed in the corridor on standby also returned to the Shadow Hall.

For the first time, they saw the real appearance of the large pillar in the center of the hall, and finally realized how weird this "unusual painting style" thing was.

Nicholas floated in mid-air, and slowly turned half a circle around this large pillar. He knew that Gawain could "see" what happened here, but the viewing angle of the monitor was a bit limited after all, and there were some clues about the details. Wen may not be able to find out in time, it still depends on the staff on site.

But in this half circle, he really saw some details that he hadn't discovered before.

"There's a nameplate here," Nicholas said loudly suddenly, and it floated somewhere on the side of the pillar. "There's a word on it, 'Anchor Point Generator'...Is this the name of this big guy?"

"Anchor Point Generator?" Gawain "frowned" under his ideology. He followed the progress in the Hall of Shadows, and his eyes focused on the huge pillar that had revealed its true colors, mixed with high-tech and religious mysteries. On the road, the weird name that Nicholas discovered made many conjectures pop up in his mind, "What is the anchor point? Why is there such a thing in the sky station..."

While Gawain was thinking about the new clues, Cassandra and the Krakens were also proceeding in an orderly manner to remove the remaining thorny structure in the hall, and gradually reached the end—huge and with multiple limbs The sea monster form is very suitable for this kind of heavy physical labor (of course, you can also develop some side jobs such as playing evil gods, deep-sea fears, and horror bosses), accompanied by the crisp sound of crystal breaking and the noise of a large number of thorns falling to the ground, Ka Sandra made a happy voice: "It's done!"

In the next second, a strange humming sound came to everyone's ears—the humming sound came from the depths of the "anchor point generator" in the center of the hall. It was not loud, but it seemed to be able to penetrate into everyone's ears. Azalena was the first to react. She stared wide-eyed at the huge pillar in the darkness, and saw the innumerable lines on its surface as if it had come to life in an instant. Something has changed!

All the stripes are moving, and all the edges are beginning to undulate and squirm. This horrifying and weird scene is like a grotesque dream. In this short "dream", Azalena felt that she saw through the changing patterns. something.

Those patterns formed words, or some kind of pictures that could directly convey information. She saw a massive amount of information frozen inside, which described an ancient and ethereal existence in a vast but vague way, and through This kind of "description" maintains the stability of that ancient existence. She can't tell what kind of feeling this is, because these information, or "impressions" are directly surfaced in her subconscious—and in the next second, it will be like The morning dew evaporated like smoke.

Azalena rubbed her eyes and found that the patterns on the pillars were still the same. The "information" that surged before seemed to be just a false memory that was suddenly planted in her mind. She thought that she had been in that weird state for at least A few hours, but judging from the scene, it seems to be just an instant.

However, what Bellanta said immediately next to her proved that what she "saw" at that moment was indeed real: "Did you see those? Azalena, just now... the indescribably huge information It suddenly flooded into my mind, but I can't understand what it is..."

"I saw it too," Azarena said with a shocked expression on her face, "but I don't even know what I 'saw', I just felt as if I understood some truths briefly, but those things are now Gone, only left in my mind..."

Leaving only some empty echoes, some impressions that once represented "there was something there", she witnessed things that mortals could never comprehend, but these things did not hurt her fragile sanity as a mortal, but like a breeze Dissipate harmlessly——she wanted to say this, but she felt that the words were too weird when she spoke, and just as she was hesitating, Nicholas' voice suddenly sounded from the side, interrupting the communication between her and Berlanta Conversation between: "Information? What information?"

Nicholas seemed completely unaware of the change in the pattern on the surface of the column just now, nor did he "witness" any "indescribable shape of truth". He just felt that the energy in the column became active in an instant. The equipment is buzzing and waking up quickly, the terminals connected to the large columns are lighting up one by one, and dim lights are gradually emerging on the ceiling.

Immediately afterwards, the ubiquitous thick shadows in this hall seemed to gradually dissipate a little—not completely dissipated, that abnormal feeling of darkness still enveloped the entire space, but this darkness was obviously not as dense and depressing as before To an unnerving degree, the lights sprinkled from the roof bring back the warmth and sense of security, and the shadow force in the hall is still entrenched, but it feels like... It's like an "out of control" released from some extreme. ”The state has returned to the state of orderly operation.

All these changes are obviously related to the activities of Cassandra and the others to completely remove the "thorns".

"We seem to have repaired something here..." Nicholas said in a deep voice, with a tremor of metallic resonance in his voice, "I can feel the energy rushing in the hall, and all the equipment here are gradually waking up. The pillar is the core of the whole change, and the lights on its surface are twice as many as before, and I will check whether the terminals connected to it can be operated."

Gawain listened to Nicholas' report and watched the sudden astonishing changes in the Hall of Shadows. In the depths of his consciousness, the "spots" and "lines" representing the working status of the various systems of the Sky Station also quietly changed. The spot of light in the Hall of Shadows was obviously brighter than before, and a large number of originally hidden lines emerged from the mist. Through these hidden connections, Gawain felt that he was linking to some new databases or command libraries. I know, some ancient permissions have been loosened again, and some dusty logs are entering his review list, and these data obviously point to this mysterious shadow hall and the "anchor point generator" with unknown functions.

"Try to activate the terminal on your left front," Gawain's voice suddenly came from above the hall, following the "lines" he saw in his consciousness, he began to instruct Nicholas to activate the corresponding hardware in the hall— ——This will help him further master the cabin section that has just "resurrected", "Enter the original command, 00-01-01-22-15-05."

Nicholas immediately began to cooperate - in the past dozens of days, he had cooperated with Gao Wen countless times, and the facts proved that it was very effective.

The terminal that had just started up with the awakening of the "anchor point generator" accepted an external input command, and the interface projected above it shook for a while, as if it wanted to reset its state briefly, but within a thousandth Within seconds, Gawain's will took over the terminal, and projected some of the logs stored in it that had only fragments left.

At the same time, those fragments of the diary appeared in Gawain's mind—they seemed to be some "notes" after the shadow hall was built, and some seemed to be instructions left by the sailor to a certain object or objects ——

"...the anchor point generator will be activated after..., and the target individual will remain in a...stable state...

"The target individual will accept the authority of the star map custodian after the anchor point generator is activated. The system clock will reset to zero and start running at this time. The data link of the sky station will be open to the star map keeper after the clock starts...

"It should be noted that after activation, the star map keeper cannot close the various subsystems and sub-permissions it carries. This task will continue to exist until the ideal model appears and meets the standard...

"...The link between the star map keeper and the anchor point generator is set as a high priority. On the premise of ensuring the operation of the sky itself, the energy supply of the anchor point generator and the survival of the star map keeper should be given priority in any case ...

"If the star map keeper dies or fails unexpectedly, the anchor point generator should restart immediately and reset the keeper status. If the star map keeper is offline while alive, the anchor point generator should be locked to the pre-offline state and continue to run, To maximize the survival of the custodian...

"If a permanent catastrophe occurs in the local planetary system, causing the probability of rebirth of civilization to be always zero within a calculable time scale, the project can be terminated early. If the star map keeper is still alive under such circumstances, then... Putting all energy into launching... performing an evacuation mission...

"Note: The sentinel system cannot establish direct data exchange with the star map custodian, in case the anchor point generator loses focus, such as the anchor point generator loses focus or enters the second level...or it will cause the keeper's data to be copied incorrectly and overflow... "

Fragmented system logs flowed through Gao Wen's mind like running water, but the hidden information brought more confusion. Gao Wen searched for this ancient computer that may have been dormant for 10,000+ or ​​even hundreds of thousands of years. equipment, trying to find more fragments to piece together what he saw, but only found some completely useless Sky Station running records or hardware logs, and finally he could only refocus on these flowing log fragments , and saw the end of these pieces of information——

"… Pay homage to the custodian of the star map, and extend blessings to all beings born and unborn on this planet, and wish you good luck—the sea of ​​stars is vast, the universe is cold, and the road is still long, but you are not alone .”

When Gawain finished browsing the log fragments read in his mind, the advance team in the Shadow Hall also saw the information projected over the terminal, and Azalena felt that she had rarely seen anything like that in her life. When I was completely confused like this today: "It's all... what is it?"

"The ancient plan of the voyagers to stay on this planet," Gawain answered her with a deep and serious voice, "It seems...the arrangement they left here is not just as simple as 'monitoring'."

"It seems that the 'star map keeper' mentioned above relies on this so-called 'anchor point generator' to maintain stability, or 'maintain survival'," Bellanta said. He said thoughtfully, "This mysterious existence is the core of the whole plan...but who is ta? Or, is it... what?"

Chapter 1456 Amber's Anomaly

What exactly does the star map keeper refer to?This is the question that everyone in the Hall of Shadows has in their minds. In such an ancient space station that has been sealed for countless years, in the depths of another mystery left by the voyager, an ancient plan was suddenly revealed. A corner was opened, and the mysterious "star map keeper" obviously played an extremely special and important role in it, which not only made everyone curious, but also made them feel... vaguely uneasy.

"I hope it's not another 'sentinel'," Bellanta muttered softly, expressing the worries that everyone else had at the moment, "I'm already a bit psychologically shadowed by the 'ancient mind' left by the sailor... ..."

"Judging from the scene, this 'star map keeper' should not have been polluted by the reverse tide like the sentinel. Most of the thorns before were the self-protection mechanism of the anchor point generator, which isolated the pollution of the year," Gao Wen A voice came from above the hall, "But...no one knows what's going on with that 'custodian' right now."

"No matter who he is, he is obviously not here now." Cassandra's eyes fell on a terminal beside her. "It says that the star map keeper is offline."

"Yes, offline status, not death," Gao Wen said thoughtfully, "judging from the details in the system log, this anchor point generator should have a mechanism to detect whether the star map keeper is alive, if The custodian died unexpectedly, the anchor point generator seems to be able to 'reset' the custodian by restarting, and now the device is in an offline hang-up mode-this means that the star map keeper is still alive, just in a state of being unable to connect. "

"Trapped somewhere? In deep sleep? Or is the system itself malfunctioning?" Azalena frowned. "Is this 'offline status' related to the reverse tide pollution that this hall suffered many years ago?"

Bellanta's eyes fell on the log records projected above the terminal, and then she looked away and glanced at Azalena beside her: "Tell me... is this star map keeper hiding in the sky station now? Somewhere? Or hidden in our world?"

"Who knows?" Azalena spread her hands, "In the end, we don't even know what kind of existence the 'Star Map Keeper' is, or even if it's a machine or an ancient creature, or It's just a piece of data stored in a certain device at Sky Station... After reading the content described in these fragmentary logs, it makes people even more confused."

The hall fell into a moment of silence, and everyone was quietly thinking about the possible explanations behind the information revealed by the terminal. This silence lasted for a long time, until Gao Wen's voice suddenly broke the silence: "Now what we can conclude The information is only this: this "star map keeper" still exists, exists in a corner we don't know, he may have been paying attention to the development of our world, waiting for us to develop to At a certain stage, there is an independent large-scale system in the firmament station dedicated to this purpose...

"Right now, the state of the star map keeper is obviously not good, and he may even have lost his ability to move, at least lost the ability to respond to the sky station, and his ancient mission... obviously cannot be successfully completed."

Nicholas has been silent since just now, and he didn't know what he was thinking about. At this moment, he suddenly said: "Judging from the last message in the system log, the task left by the sailor to the 'star map keeper' is at least In good faith."

"This is probably the only part of the whole thing that can make people feel at ease—however, facing the changes of 1807 million years and the reverse tide pollution that spread here at an unknown time, we probably can't trust too much what the founder left behind. 'Good intentions'." Gawain's voice still sounded serious, "The sentinel is an impressive example, although the star map keeper does not seem to have followed the old path of the sentinel, but we'd better not be blindly optimistic."

"We understand," Nicholas bobbed up and down, "Then about this shadow hall and this 'anchor point generator'...how should we deal with it? Should we just leave it alone?"

"You can't leave it alone," Gawain's voice sounded immediately, "It seems that there is no dangerous distortion in this hall itself, you should reserve some people to continue to study the things here, and see if there are more in other terminals. At the same time, the state of the 'anchor point generator' is also closely monitored - but be careful not to conduct destructive 'tests' on any of the devices here, so as not to trigger an automatic counterattack from the security system.

"In addition, there are a lot of data flows in this hall that are still out of my control. I will find out the equipment corresponding to this part of the data flow later. You focus on 'taking care' of this part, which will help me help you open more access rights.

"The rest of the people continue to go deeper. I have found the route to the next ring belt. All the gates on the route have been unlocked. At present, it is initially judged that there should be an ecological/observation compound cabin. Later I will put the forward route and The safe areas that can be determined at the moment will be marked for you, follow the previous experience and steps, and pay attention to safety."

Nicholas' body sank slightly, and his tone was extremely serious: "Yes, we understand."

Gao Wen hummed, and then ended the "connection" state of high concentration. A sudden sense of weightlessness dragged all his senses down suddenly. In this familiar whirl, he felt himself again The body on the surface of the planet, and the various tactile sensations from this body——he slightly opened his eyes, and the scene of the study room that hadn't changed appeared in front of him.

...it seems that nothing has changed.

As soon as Gao Wen lowered his head, he saw that his desk was in a mess. The documents that had just been sorted out and processed were in a mess, and the ink bottle at hand was knocked over, and half of the ink in it spilled on his own. On the sleeves, there was a large pile of melon seed skins that came from nowhere and scattered all around, spilling from his body to the ground next to him, and the books on the nearby bookshelves also fell all over the ground—the scene was tragic like five hundred crazy cats. The goose has fought a dark duel here.

"...Fuck!"

Gao Wen finally woke up from the trance and dizziness caused by the mental transfer, and he got up abruptly with a bang, and the next second, he saw the suspect who caused this tragic scene slumped across the table—— Amber and Bar Lying on the carpet like a dehydrated salted fish, the scattered melon seed skins and the ink left on his hands all pointed out the identity of the culprit.

"You are..." Gawain hurried out from behind the table and walked up to Amber. His first reaction was that someone tried to assassinate just now, and then his brave guard Miss Amber fought the assassin for [-] rounds to protect the lord. The swords and swords of the two sides left a mess on the ground - but first, he felt that this was not something that the shame of all things in front of him could do, and second, it could not explain the problem of the melon seeds all over the ground, so he quickly got rid of it. After all the brain supplements in my mind, I only checked Amber's state with nervousness. After all, the other party's posture lying on the ground really meant a sudden death, but I didn't expect to hear a slight snoring sound just as I approached. into the ear...

This guy sleeps very comfortably.

Gao Wen swore that he was not as confused as he was when he found out about the "Star Map Keeper" from the system log of Sky Station just now, and all the experience and wisdom he had accumulated in his life could not explain the weird situation in front of him. situation.

The next second, he stretched out his hand to pull Amber and turned it over. Seeing that this guy was intact, but his face and hands were covered with ink, he was relieved, and reached out to pat the other person's cheek: "Wake up!" Wake up, wake up, wake up, don't sleep."

"Woooo..." Amber snorted in her sleep, curled up like a cat and wriggled a few times on the carpet, and then suddenly woke up with a jolt, almost jumping up from the ground , "Mom!!"

Gao Wen almost let this guy put his head on his chin, but he managed to dodge it thanks to his quick reflexes. Then he stood up and put his hand on Amber's head: "Are you awake? Explain what happened—— Did you fight an assassin with melon seeds here for three hundred rounds, or did you have a dark duel with my inkwell after drinking too much?"

"Melon seeds? Duel in darkness?" Amber seemed to be no less dazed than Gao Wen. She blinked her eyes for a long time before finally waking up. Then she saw the mess next to the desk and the ink on Gao Wen's body. And the melon seed skin, the whole person shrank his neck, even his height seemed to be shrunk abruptly, "Then if I said that a ferocious assassin tried to assassinate you with the melon seed skin, would you believe me?"

Gao Wen Yile: "Do you believe me when I say I will triple your salary next month?"

Amber immediately raised her neck: "I can believe it, when will you get up?"

"Don't interrupt!" Gao Wen immediately slapped her back, "What the hell is going on - did you do it? And why are you lying on the ground?"

"...Would you believe me if I said that all of this stemmed from a cramp?" Amber shrank her neck, and only secretly raised her eyelids to look at Gao Wen, "I just wanted to help you get the melon seeds off your body... "

Gao Wen looked down at himself, then shook the melon seeds between his collar and hair, with a dull expression: "Then I have already received your kindness——I don't care why I have melon seeds on my body, you first Pick yourself a wall."

"What I said is true!" Amber jumped up immediately, "I don't know what happened - I was guarding by your side at first, and then I suddenly had a cramp for some reason, and then It’s as if the hands and feet can’t be controlled. I still want to call someone in to help, but when you started ‘meditating’ before, I activated the protection of the study room, and I couldn’t turn it off. I don’t know what happened to me afterwards. Lying on the ground, I remember suddenly feeling extremely relaxed..."

Amber crackled and talked about her weird and horrifying experience just now, with "assistive instructions" and live demonstrations mixed with dancing and gesticulating.

The things she said were really weird, and she habitually added a lot of exaggerated expressions, but Gao Wen showed a serious expression not long after she spoke, and he listened carefully to Amber's words. Tell the story, and didn't speak until the other party finished speaking: "So it's not a 'cramp', strictly speaking, you feel that you have a 'limb' that is not under your control, and that part of the 'limb' is working with your own will. conflict?"

Amber blinked, and looked at Gao Wen in surprise: "...you believe it? I thought you..."

"You usually give people the impression that you don't know what to say—but I know what you say under certain circumstances." Gawain glanced at the Shadow Assault Goose, "What happened before these abnormal phenomena happened?" Is it a sign?"

"Signs? There are no signs at all," Amber spread her hands helplessly, "Does it count if I ate two stinky melon seeds while eating melon seeds? If not, then everything can only be said to be an emergency."

Gao Wen frowned, he didn't know what he was thinking about, and then asked again: "When did that happen?"

"Probably?" Amber recalled, "Just less than an hour after you entered the 'meditation'?"

Gao Wen kept frowning and watched Amber's face silently, but countless thoughts were churning up and down in his mind, but Amber was terrified by the other's eyes, and his ears perked up on the spot: "You...you Why are you looking at me like that...what I said is true, and you just said you believed me..."

"I know what you said is true," Gao Wen said slowly with a serious expression, "I just... have some completely unreasonable associations."

There must have been some "vision" in Amber's body. Gawain would not simply attribute this to "cramps", and the time when the vision appeared on her... If you think about it carefully, it should be in Cassandra And the sirens started cutting those purple-black "crystal thorns" before and after.

Rationally, these seem to be two irrelevant things. What is the connection between the Shadow Hall in the synchronous orbit and Amber, who has lived on the surface since childhood?Gao Wen couldn't think of any clues or evidence that could link the two together.

However, emotionally...he couldn't help but think of what happened in the sky station.

Because this is the only thing he can think of now that can be somewhat related to the vision on Amber - at least, they seem to happen at the same time.

And that hall is filled with abnormal shadow power.

"Unreasonable association?" Amber looked at Gao Wen suspiciously, her ears trembling slightly in the air, "You...is there something wrong with Sky Station?"

"'Star Chart Custodian'," Gao Wen said suddenly, looking into Amber's eyes, "do you have any impression of this word?"

Amber was stunned: "Star map keeper? I haven't heard of it. Is there a new position in the government affairs department? What is it for?"

Her expression did not seem to be fake, of course, Gao Wen didn't think she would really know the name from the beginning.

"We found a hall shrouded in shadow power in the firmament station. There is a strange navigator device in the hall. The nameplate of the device shows that it is called an 'anchor point generator'," Gawain did not hide, "At that time, the anchor point The generator was covered by a large number of purple-black thorn-like crystal growths, and Cassandra led the sea monsters to clear those thorns-from the timing, it should be exactly when your 'body is out of control'.

"And after clearing those thorns, Nicholas and the others read the remaining log data in that device. From the data, we learned of the existence of a person called 'Star Map Custodian'..."

Chapter 1457 Difficulties

Amber listened to what Gao Wen said in a daze, until the other party's voice fell, she looked down at her hands, and then raised her head somewhat confused: "So you think what happened in the Sky Station is related to me? "

"The hall is full of shadow power. When you cut the thorns, your body lost control, and you also sensed 'limbs' that don't belong to you." Gawain said with a serious expression, "Of course, I know these things don't sound very good. Convincing conjectures, but there are so many coincidences that I can't help but associate them together."

"But how is this possible..." Amber clenched her fist in confusion, and then slowly let go, "How can I, an ordinary person who has lived on the surface of the earth for decades, return to the sky station in space..."

"But you are not an 'ordinary person'." Gawain looked into Amber's eyes, "You also know that you are special. In fact, in my opinion, nothing that happens to you is surprising, after all... You can even get part of Ms. Ye's authority."

Amber pursed her lips, and suddenly realized that she couldn't refute this at all. As Gawain said, she was not an "ordinary person" from the beginning—she was the "artificial human No. 36" artificially synthesized by the Gondor Empire. She has a soul from the shadow world, she is the only "shadow dweller" living in the real world so far, and she also has an inexplicable connection with the shadow goddess... All kinds of special things are gathered in one person, this It was destined that something unusual would happen to her.

It's just that the "unusual things" in her mind have been limited to this planet, the sky station in space... A few years ago, she didn't even know about such a thing as a "space station"!

"Then what should I do now?" Amber blinked and looked at Gawain a little at a loss, "By the way, do you think I am the so-called 'star map keeper'?"

"...It sounds unlikely, but from another perspective, although your body was created during the Gondor Empire, your soul may be older than the Gondor Empire. After all, you don't even know yourself. The origin of the soul, isn't it?" Gao Wen said slowly, "Of course, this is just a conjecture with no basis, and there are too many things that can be denied. Among other things, the 'star map keeper' left by the voyager It shouldn't be as weak as you..."

Amber: "...That's right."

"The important thing now is how your body is." Gao Wen frowned, his expression became serious. "Apart from feeling out of control and tingling in your limbs before, is there anything unusual about you now?"

He is now more and more suspicious that there is really any connection between Amber and the Sky Station. This may be just an unreasonable conjecture at first, but once this idea is formed, it will become more and more firm as time goes by. The process of cutting the "thorns" stimulated the "artificial life form" amber, so will there be any sequelae of this stimulation?Will the disappearance of those thorns be good or bad for Amber?This is what worries him more and more.

Amber was obviously also a little worried about her own state. She looked nervously at her hands and feet, jumped up and down on the spot, squatted several times, trotted around Gawain twice, and burrowed into the Shadow Realm in the middle After a series of strange "self-examinations", she breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that there is nothing wrong, and not only is there nothing wrong, but also feels... a lot easier?"

"You still feel a lot more relaxed?" Gao Wen raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

"It seems that something that has been bound to me has disappeared? I feel that my hands, feet and spirit are much lighter," Amber carefully chooses words, trying to describe the wonderful feeling she feels at this moment, "It's that kind...you never feel that you are being trapped. Something binds you, and you always feel that your body should be like this, but suddenly one day the restraint disappears, and you realize that your body can be more relaxed, and finally realize that something is affecting your activities before, That's what it feels like."

Speaking of this, she thought about it again, and added uncertainly: "But it's just a change in 'feeling', my body doesn't seem to be really getting faster and stronger because of it, and my strength hasn't changed much from before. A psychological lightness? That's about it."

"I understand what you mean," Gao Wen looked Amber up and down, "so it seems to be a good thing in the short term. But we still don't know if there is any connection between you and the sky, and we don't know the so-called What the hell is a 'star chart keeper'."

"Hey, I hope that Nicholas and the others can find some new clues as soon as possible," Amber sighed, "You said that I was just an ordinary thief back then, why have I been involved in this kind of thing now... "
